Very beautiful mount. Just emailed it to my wife and told her to get plane tickets --Only partly kidding-next summer...............
precision is group shooting, accuracy is hitting your intended target.

I have both Hartmann and Burchell's mounts, but I just returned from Zambia, and learned that their Zebras, although not a different subspecies, are different. They have no shading, just black & white, but the striping continues around under their bellies and down the legs....fully striped. Gorgeous animal!

Zebras are hard to hunt and delicious. I think the best game meat I have eaten.Hunting one is the ultimate revenge for every horse that has tried to buck you off, rubbed you off on a tree, bitten you, stepped on you or made you walk through prickly pear.

I don't know who this skinny young sprout of a boy is, but he is one handsome devil! Posing with his first zebra, a Hartmanns, in 1987... ![[Linked Image]](http://i560.photobucket.com/albums/ss45/thmsbrownlee/037_37-1.jpg) Notice the scope.....oh, to have young eyes again! Hey Ingwe: I was reading an old issue of Rifle the other day and JB ratted you out (by name, of all things!!) for butt-shooting a zebra with a 7x57 using partitions. Is this the one? RM
"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown
